Laine's Orange Crush team is a U9 team made up of 7, 8, and 9 year olds that play in the U10 division. 2 true U10s were invited to be guest players with us for this tournament. As usually they were underestimated by every team because they are so little and boy did they show them all. They went undefeated throughout the tournament. One coach said his team was not used to losing and didn't give Orange Crush a second thought once they saw us. He complimented the girls on their skill and said he "could not wait to see this team in the future" Laine played keeper the second half of the championship game, we were up 3-0 when the Ref. made a horrible call and brought Laine to tears. The team got a free kick and scored. Now it was 3-1. Not 5 minutes later another free kick and Laine was mad. She was not going to give that Ref. the satisfaction of letting them score on her twice. She made a beautiful save that erupted the sidelines in a roar. It was awesome.
They won the game 3-2. Go Orange Crush !!!!
